I'm a developer and entrepreneur whose gone from cubical to startup and now trying to do find his own way. I'm interested in simple things, but above all clean design, music, programming, autos and architecture
Came across this short film the other day. Noah and the Whale made an estequely pleasing film for their new album 'The First Days of Spring'. I'm looking forward to that and this album. It's a pretty amazing little vignette a la Wes Anderson in tradition.
Hats off to anyone who came across this band before I did, especially the people at Bacardi who are aptly funding their dreams while employing them in their most recent commercial. Obviously I need to get off my high horse and get back in the music listening game and pay attention. I missed this one, despite it being plainly in front of me. This band is pretty superb.
Sometimes I think blogging is utter an farce to the point it's bullshit from a self expressing "look how awesome I am" point of view. It's the same kinda pretention found to turn off most people to art. In know way am I aligning blogging with art, but only in a self-grandizing way. I try hard to fight this, but I'm like all the rest. Instead, I'd just prefer to laugh at myself and my rediculousness.
Not what I typically want to say, but needed to be said.
There in lies the digression. Nevertheless, I am fond of certain music videos by La blogotheque. The cinematic style is attributed to French New Wave, a la Goddard. Like his films, these are purely simplistic, evocative often dark(er) imagery and visceral no-nothing vignettes. The videos are described as "No preparation is taken and each week, a film session with an artist or group invited to play in the city, a bar, the street, a park, an apartment, with the passage of incidents, hesitations, those moments of madness takes place." It compels me and wanted to share when sharing is good! Love the French. See photos here.
Have a look at concerts a emporter, here and the rest of the films available. I love music recommendations.
